95-96 ECU question

[Bens95TalonTSi]

Does the 95-96 DSM ecu have a speedlimiter? How can you get rid of it for cheap?

 

[Bens95TalonTSi]

I read some thing about clipping a risistor. Is that all it is and is it safe for the ecu?

Any FWD 2g has a speed limiter because they came stock with H rated tires which aren't rated to go faster than 135 MPH (Thus the governor is at 137 on 2g FWD's)

Do a search in the tech articles for "Tired of only going 137?" and you'll get yourself a nice VFAQ.

GET Z RATED TIRES BEFORE YOU EVEN ATTEMPT TO DO THIS. I don't want to see moron crashes car by blowing out all 4 tires on the 6 o clock news.

I already have Z rated Kumho Supras. Thanks for the info.

Not that I would go faster than 135mph on H rated tires, but technically H rated tires can go past 135mph for a brief period without blowing up. Z rated tires can travel at high speeds for extented periods of time.

you habe to cut the r255 and r256 resistor in the ECU and the limiter is off

And I believe that the AWD doesnt have a speed limiter because it came stock with Z-rated tires

 

[talonsport]

yes the awd also cames whiuth this resistor
the 255 is for the fwd and the 256 is for the awd
